Award: Durability
The Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts is a high-profile venue located in the heart of downtown Orlando, FL. The foundation of this project ran the length of a city block and included 5000 yd3 (3800 m3) of temperature restricted mass concrete. The specification was changed from 50% slag cement to include 70% slag cement to help lower maximum internal temperatures.
